By Jason Hink, Douglas County Sports OnlineThe Mountain View Conference regular season title is still undecided after North Douglas downed previously unbeaten Oakland 25-21, 25-14, 8-25, 28-26 Tuesday night in Drain. The Warriors (12-1) won the first two games, but the Oakers (12-1) dominated game three 25-8. However, North Douglas finally put the match away with a 28-26 victory in game four. "Nobody was ahead by more than a couple of points in the last game," Warriors head coach Anne Campbell said.
